We need prana or chi energy for all body activities including thinking. Extra prana energy is stored at the solar plexus in the body. The more of Prana energy a person has accumulated the healthier and dynamic he or she becomes.

Breathing Exercise to Increase ‘Chi’ Energy

Select a calm place where there is no disturbance and light is not too bright. If it is indoors then it should not be a totally closed room and good circulation of fresh air must be there.
Sit in any comfortable posture either on a rug spread on the floor or on a chair with legs hanging down and feet resting on a rug on the floor.

Breathing Exercise

Step 1: Take a couple of normal smooth breaths and relax fully.

Step 2: Take a complete breath through your nostrils, take in as much air as you can, expand your chest and abdomen in order to take in more air.

Step 3: without holding your breath slowly and smoothly exhale through open mouth over much longer period than you took for inhalation. Let your chest contract and stomach squeeze in while you try to exhale all the air from your lungs.

Repeat the above two steps for at least twenty times.

Step 4: Breath normally and sit quietly visualizing that prana energy or ‘Chi’ is circulating in your whole body.
